Summary
"This book includes case studies of a number of systems from across the globe: Cyprus, Guyana, Jersey, Mauritius, the Philippines, Quebec, St. Lucia, Scotland, and the Seychelles. Each combines its legal legacies in novel ways. Large and small, in Europe and beyond, some are sovereign, some part of larger political units. Some are monolingual, some bilingual, some multilingual."--Provided by publisher.
